Hi Ashley,

    I am running Ubuntu 6.10 with network-manager-gnome. As far as I know,
on network manager i can only configure wireless connections and can't turn
the wired connections off without turning wireless off as well.
    I've tried to reinstall the network manager, but without success.
    Any other suggestions?

   Thanks.

   Daniel

I'm not sure which release of Ubuntu you're running, but you may want to
install one of the following packages:

network-manager-gnome
network-manager-kde

They give you a nice system tray applet that lets you select between wired
or
wireless connections, and easily configure your wireless encryption type
(WEP/WPA) and encryption keys.

Cheers
Ash
